Patients' Experiences With Therapeutic Approaches for Post-COVID Syndrome: Results of a Crowdsourced Research Survey.
Article in Annals of family medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Some patients develop multiple protracted sequelae after infection with SARS-CoV-2, collectively known as post-COVID syndrome or long COVID. To date, there is no evidence showing benefit of specific therapies for this condition, and patients likely resort to self-initiated therapies. We aimed to obtain information about therapies used by and needs of this population via inductive crowdsourcing research. Patients completed an online questionnaire about their symptoms and experiences with therapeutic approaches. Responses of 499 participants suggested few approaches (eg, mind-body medicine, respiratory therapy) had positive effects and showed a great need for patient-centered communication (eg, more recognition of this syndrome). Our findings can help design clinical studies and underscore the importance of the holistic approach to care provided by family medicine.
